Whisk together a cup of whole wheat flour, a cup of all purpose flour, 1/2 cup of rolled oats, 2 tablespoons sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Add 1-1/2 cups beer, light or dark but cold or at room temperature, not flat. Fold in until dry ingredients are wet. Pour into an 8-1/2 by 6-1/2 inch greased baking pan and put in a preheated 400 degree F. oven for 35 to 40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the loaf comes out clean.
I always think good bread tastes a bit beery, but that's the yeast; this is soda bread, which I love, so I imagine you get the best of both with this. It looks delicious, I'd like to try it.
Yum! I have some beer bread mix (from Tastefully Simple) & there's a bottle of beer in the fridge just waiting for me to make it. I've made it with soda too - makes a sweeter tasting bread.
Well, you realize we need the recipe? Looks delicious. I could get my granddaughter who is living with me now, to make it for us.

ReplyDeleteThe recipe came from the New Joy of Cooking.
DeleteNot a beer enthusiast but I'd give this delicious looking bread a taste.
ReplyDeleteTaste's pretty good, Stephen, and reportedly is good toasted.
DeleteHow delicious looking. You might have just inspired me to try my hand at baking. :)
ReplyDeletePiece of cake. Er, bread. Tell K she can thank me if it turns out well!
DeleteDoes it taste more of beer or of bread? Anyway it looks absolutely delicious. Too bad you can't send a slice via the ethernet! Maybe one day?
DeleteI've only had one slice and I didn't notice a beer flavor at all, Natalie. I'm going to try one toasted this morning.

ReplyDeleteA good looking loaf. You did good.
ReplyDeleteLooks a tidy bit scrummy, I should say.
ReplyDeleteWas there a blonde on each side of you when you baked it?
ReplyDeleteOne could only wish.

ReplyDeleteDo you mean like Coke or something?
DeleteYes - and I've used Mountain Dew and Sprite before - and I think I did it with an orange drink of some kind too :)
